Basic Image Quality Adjustments

Press and select the colour mode from the five available modes in the selection menu in accordance with the place where the projector is being used.

Setting is also possible using the configuration menu.

Dynamic

Living Room

Natural

:Ideal for using in bright rooms.

:Ideal for using in rooms in which the curtains are closed.

:Ideal for using in dark rooms. It is recommended that you start in this mode when making colour adjustments.

Theatre

sRGB

:Ideal for using in dark rooms.

:If the connected signal source has an sRGB mode, set both the projector and the connected signal source to sRGB. (Ideal for viewing computer images.)

If "Natural", "Theatre" or "sRGB" is selected, the Epson Cinema Filter effect will be applied automatically. This increases contrast and makes flesh tones appear more natural.

When you select "Living Room", the Black-White Stretch function will operate to produce images with greater contrast between lighter and darker shades.

Press and select the aspect mode from the selection menu.
